Abstract
Abstract Functional fluid systems, i.e. hydraulic fluid and heat transfer fluid systems, containing alkoxysilane cluster compounds having the formula RSi[OSi(OR')3]3 wherein R is hydrogen, an alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or aralkyl group and each R' is independently selected from the same group as R with the proviso that at least a majority of R' radicals are sterically hindered alkyl groups having at least 3 carbon atoms, are described.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
In a method wherein a first mechanical effort is converted to pressure at a first location, the pressure is transmitted from said first location to a second location via a hydraulic fluid, and said pressure is converted to a second mechanical effort at said second location, the improvement which comprises using as said hydraulic fluid one which comprises an effective amount of a compound having the formula: ##STR2## wherein R is hydrogen, an alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or aralkyl, and each R' is independently selected from the same group as R with the proviso that at least a majority of R' radicals are sterically hindered alkyl groups having at least 3 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
